In the given problem there are several vital informations to take note off for completing the required answer to the question.
It has been assumed that the unknown number is = p
Now we can get to the desired equation for solving and finding the value of p.
(p + 7)/12 = 3
p + 7 = 3 * 12
p + 7 = 36
p = 36 - 7
  = 29
So the value of the unknown number p is 29. I hope that the method i have used to solve this problem is clear to you and you can solve such type of problems in future without anyone's help.

inna [77]

Write <u>two functions</u> that <u>describes</u> the <u>decrease of the population</u> after <u>t years.</u>

1.  In one study, a population of 784 orangutans is expected to decrease at a rate of 25 orangutans per year. Then after t years the number of orngutans will be

y=784-25t.

2.  In a second study, the population of a group of 817 orangutans is expected to decrease at a rate of 36 per year. Then after t years the number of orngutans will be

y=817-36t.

3. Equate right sides of the equations:

784-25t=817-36t,\\ \\36t-25t=817-784,\\ \\11t=33,\\ \\t=3\ years.
